Description
The light it flickers in and out
of ferns and of the trees.
Like lovers of a past, no doubt
that drifted off to sea.
I catch a ray upon my skin
of one persistent sun!
It finds and lands upon one twin
no greenery to shun.
We reminisce, my friends and I
when youth was on our side.
Of lovers for whom we�d die
that took us for a ride.
But in the sea I hold a dream,
a fairy tale come true
A knight whose armor shines with gleam,
and loves me through and through.

Greetings to a virtuoso artist, I adore the poem you have included with this lovely image. It is so beautiful. I'm crazy about poetry. I hope you realize what a precious gift you were born with. You're a sensitive poet as well as an amazing artist. What an incredible combination! The world is a better place because you're in it, my lady.

Thank you so much, Tony! yep, I love all the arts, including poetry. I had a book published back in 2013 by a small publishing company. Perhaps one day I will publish a second book of poetry and short, short stories.
